I am struggling to work through a problem that occurred after upgrading my graphics card to EVGA GTX750.
LCD display that was previously working now is not recognized during boot and I only get "no signal" on the LCD. I no longer have the drivers specific to the monitor, however it seems unusual that this would not work with any windows 7 device. I have 2 windows 7 systems, and on my other system I can at least get it to come up in safemode. I tried changing color settings, however in control panel I have very limited options in safemode. Changed to 16 color, reduced resolution, applied settings, rebooted, same problem.
Lots of utilities out there offer updated drivers, and are more than happy to fill my system with spam applications. Appreciate some guidance here.

You don't need any drivers for the monitor, the issue is with the video card. Either your system does not have enough power to run it, or you don't have it hooked up properly. Did you disable onboard video? Do you have the monitor hooked into the video card or the onboard video? If the card has a power plug, is that in? Although being a plain 750 it should not have any extra power plug on it.
